So yes, the silk is not through-but Opinel made a model (more expensive) that offers this feature, the advantage of this knife is that you can rebuild him handle the day he breaks (with board cut of that glue, as it is the beech) or pierce the back of the knife to put his weight to balance it to perfection before reseal it with a piece of wood.
In short, it is a knife to the old but with a modern steel that you ask?
